The individual mirrors in his individuation the preordained social laws of exploitation, however mediated.

In his state of complete powerlessness the individual perceives the time he has left to live as a brief reprieve.

In the age of the individual's liquidation, the question of individuality must be raised anew.

Lies are told only to convey to someone that one has no need either of him or his good opinion.

The good man is he who rules himself as he does his own property: his autonomous being is modelled on material power.

He who stands aloof runs the risk of believing himself better than others and misusing his critique of society as an ideology for his private interest.
